  1. 16. Occupant Neck Muscle Modelling in Rear-End Crashes

    Författare :I Putu Alit Putra; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active Neck Muscle Responses; Finite Element; Whiplash Associated Disorders; Female; Human Body Model;

    Sammanfattning : The ultimate goal of the present research is to incorporate active and passive neck muscle effects in a female Finite Element (FE) Human Body Model (HBM). The application of interest is Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD), which can occur in a low-speed rear-end impact. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Reanalysis of primate head impact experiments to clarify mild traumatic brain injury kinematics and thresholds

    Författare :Jacobo Antona; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; simulation; Brain; finite element; injury criteria;

    Sammanfattning : Fatalities and severe injuries due to road traffic accidents still represent a serious health and economic issue intoday’s society. Brain injuries are the most common severe injuries and these injuries account for more than half ofthe 1.3 million traffic related deaths annually worldwide. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Towards improved motorcycle helmet test methods for head impact protection : Using experimental and numerical methods

    Författare :Shiyang Meng; Svein Kleiven; Peter Halldin; Mazdak Ghajari; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Head Injuries; Helmet; Injury Prevention; Motorcycle; Test Standard; Finite Element Method; Applied Medical Technology; Tillämpad medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Head injury is the leading cause of death and major trauma for users of powered two-wheelers (PTWs). Helmet use can prevent and reduce head injuries when a crash is inevitable. However, today’s motorcycle helmets do not protect equally against all types of head injuries. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Evaluation of Fluid-Structure Interaction and Biofidelity of Finite Element Head Models

    Författare :Zhou Zhou; Svein Kleiven; Xiaogai Li; David Meaney; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Applied Medical Technology; Tillämpad medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury is a critical public health issue. Finite element (FE) head models are valuable instruments to explore the causal pathway from mechanical insult to resultant brain injury. Intracranial fluid-structure interaction (FSI) and biofidelity evaluation are two fundamental aspects of FE head modeling. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Addressing Female Whiplash Injury Protection - A Step Towards 50th Percentile Female Rear Impact Occupant Models

    Författare :Anna K Carlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; anthropometry; dynamic response; head restraint; dummy; volunteers; whiplash; female; crash test; rear impact; neck injury; occupant model;

    Sammanfattning : Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD) – commonly denoted whiplash injury – to vehicle occupants involved in collisions, is of worldwide concern. These injuries occur at relatively low velocity changes, typically between 10–25 km/h, and in all impact directions. Rear impacts are, however, the most common in the accident statistics. LÄS MER
